Agnes Rubuntja

Agnes Rubuntja was born in 1960 in the famous Aboriginal artist community of Utopia, approximately 350km northeast of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory.
Agnes is daughter of the renowned artist Sammy Rubuntja and niece of artist and political activist Wenton Rubuntja. Agnes is also sister to the prominent Utopian artist, Helen Rubuntja.
Agnes began painting her traditional dreaming, passed down from her ancestors in the early 2000’s. .

Agnes’ most prominent work’s are ‘Bush Leaves’ dreaming. However, like many Utopian women, Agnes paints Women’s ceremony, depicting the sacred rituals carried out by Utopian women.
Agnes’ illustration of Bush Leaves incorporates a myriad of colour, which starts at the centre of the artwork and blossoms out. The wave-like visual effect of the leaves on the canvas, creates a multi-dimensional depiction of the sacred, medicinal Bush Leaves found in Utopia.

I'm a contemporary art lover and adore the artworks Ozbid offer, there is always something that catches my eye and the best thing is that they are always so reasonably priced, unlike some other galleries I have been to lately. It's nice to know that art can be affordable and also great quality.

We are more than thrilled with our Dorothy Napangardi artwork, it is so beautiful. I never thought I would ever afford such a piece as they are so expensive at galleries but buying at auction is the best and so affordable.

Recently I purchased a new family home with plenty of blank walls to hang art. Luckily for me, I stumbled across OzBid auctions who helped me fill my walls with quality Australian and Aboriginal art at extremely affordable prices. I thought I would have to wait years to save up buy art however OzBid solved my problem instantly. Amazing art at a fraction of the cost you would pay in the galleries.

When I made my first Ozbid purchase, the service provided FAR EXCEEDED my expectations, even bettering the service I had received from other auction houses.
The works are very accurately photographed. You can be assured that the painting you receive will look exactly the same. It is the best service that I have experienced. The time from successful bid to delivery is very short and of course, free delivery is excellent. Unlike other auction houses, I do not have the inconvenience of arranging collection and delivery. There is no hidden cost.

I got the Aboriginal art bug five years ago, but living in London UK it was difficult knowing where to source good quality pieces. So I was delighted to stumble across Ozbid in 2013. I've since bought six pieces and have always been delighted with my purchases.
I particularly like that the art comes ready to hang on quality stretchers and the speedy and efficient delivery.
Giovanna and the team make the whole process hassle free and I'm happy to recommend Ozbid.
